For the first time, you can commemorate our greatest wartime leader, Sir Winston Churchill, by collecting hisfirststhe first coin, first stamps, and first banknote to bear his image. All in one place and in a set that is exclusive to the Bradford Exchange.The Churchill CrownMade in honour of Churchill following his death in 1965, this five-shilling crown bearing his effigy marks the first time that a non-Royal was featured on British coinage. The Churchill Commemorative StampsProduced in 1965, these were the first stamps ever to bear his image. Included are both the 4d and 1/3the colours indicating the sombre mood of the nation following Churchills passing. Winston was also to appear that year on special stamps, again the first non-Royal to do so.
